Express Winemakers Blanc 2018

The aim was to make a non-varietal white from French varieties that would look at home being sipped by the side of a canal in Italy somewhere. A blend of Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Riesling from naturally farmed Great Southern vineyards, picked early for freshness and natural acidity. Part of the Chenin Blanc and Semillon was fermented on skins for texture and flavour. All fermented by wild yeast, and fermented and matured in a combination of neutral old oak and stainless steel.
